Israelis continue bombings near camp in Lebanon
The Associated Press
BEIRUT, Lebanon — Israeli helicopter gunships fired at Lebanon's largest Palestinian refugee camp yesterday, widening their six-day onslaught against Iranian-backed guerrillas. Israeli aircraft also bombed Beirut after a rocket attack on northern Israel.
Despite a flurry of diplomatic activity involving the United States, France and other countries, there was no sign of a letup in Israel's offensive aimed at stopping the Hezbollah guerrillas' rocket attacks.
Five civilians were killed and 20 wounded yesterday. All told, 46 people have been killed, including three Hezbollah guerrillas, and 166 wounded on both sides since the hostilities began Thursday.
Most of the dead have been Lebanese civilians.
Among the wounded was a Fijian captain with the U.N. peacekeeping force in south Lebanon, who was shot Monday when he challenged guerrillas preparing to fire rockets on Israel, the U.N. force said.

Syria to disarm Hezbollah.
Hours later, three Israeli helicopter gunships swept through a curtain of anti-aircraft fire, hitting Hezbollah targets in the densely populated Shite quarter of Hay Sullom near Beirut International Airport.
Hezbollah guerrillas sealed off the area, roughed up journalists and tried to confiscate cameras and film.
Meanwhile, long lines formed at Beirut bakeries and gas stations in a sign of the increasing panic among the city's 1.2 million people.
Two civilians were wounded when a civil defense ambulance took a direct hit from an Israeli gunship near Nabatiyeh. The attack, the third on an ambulance in recent days, occurred on a major highway linking Nabatiyeh with the coast, effectively cutting off the town.
